Jambmaths question:
Two fair dice are thrown at once. What is the probability of getting same face
Option A:
$\tfrac{1}{36}$
Option B:
$\tfrac{1}{24}$
Option C:
$\tfrac{1}{12}$
Option D:
$\tfrac{1}{6}$
Jamb Maths Solution:
The total possible outcome will be 36, the expected outcome are {(1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6)} that is the number of expected outcome is 6
Probability of getting the same face is $\frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}$
